a lot more these days, but only because Hacker News keeps sending huge

identity profile. And this powers targeting of more relevant ads it can
charge more for.
So despite comScore showing that the average Google+ user only spends

Mobile phones have come a long way since the unsightly bricks of the 1980s. The sleek handsets of today are a fraction the size of their ancestors, yet exponentially more powerful. While the implications for communication have been profound, there have been many other applications for this technology.

One of the most important parts of creating an effective and
intuitive user interface on touch-enabled smartphones has nothing to do
with visual appearance—instead, it has to do with creating an interface
that properly responds to user input based on touch. For Web
applications, this means replacing mouse events with touch events. In
Dojo 1.7, new touch APIs help make this process easy.
This is an updated version of the post Touching and Gesturing on the iPhone, published in 2008.
